Hi there, i am a student at UCSD for a summer internship. I am trying to run a Techno Isel Mill. It takes .ncd files. There seems to be no translator, but if i change the extension of a .nc file to .ncd the machine recognizes it. My problem is that the .nc code uses
G2XiYiRi for making fillets, chamfers,etc and techno isel will not take the "Ri" command to make these features. It won't preprocess and then it crashes. The Techno needs commands for curves in the form of G2XiYiIiJi, where by I and J specify the center of curvature. To recode by hand a few commands wouldn't be to bad, but for programs pages and pages long would make life very difficult. Is there some way to translate?
what to do?
Thank you for any help you can send this way.
